it seems that obama wants him on board for a different reason. he wants him on board to be a buffer between the congress and the president, between the special interest groups and the president, and i think hagel can be an effective buffer. he's not going to be channeling pressure from congress or from some outside groups towards the president either vis a vis iran or israel or some of the other issues where perhaps congress, even democrats in congress and the president aren't necessarily on the same page. so i think that in a way, obama wants hagel to be his flack, the person who will be absorbing that criticism from congress. one thing hagel showed last week is he's pretty good at absorbing criticism and blows from congress. he did not give a stellar performance but on the other hand, he was grilled for eight hours. he didn't make a major mistake. he slipped up a little on the containment question but all in all, there was no big blowup. he didn't get drawn into a fight with the republicans which some republicans were hoping. as harry reid said

bush and any way to adjudicate the possibilities of what war means to the obama administration? >> well, i think that, i think that is absolutely right, it has been a continuation of the bush administration policies, and yes, administrations always try to push the outer bounds of the authority. but one thank is clear is that the laws of war have not changed even if the practice has changed. there are really three reasons that a country can, a state can use force outside of its borders. one, if it is the victim of an armed attack and second if the u.n. security council authorizes it, and three, assisting a state that requests it, and we have stretched that boundary as well far beyond what the laws of war call for. so i think that there is a very serious question about this question of perpetual war, but we should remember historically in the 20th century, the u.s. was at war virtually every decade of the 20th century, so if we think of ourselves as peaceful country that does not engage in war, we need to rethink that. >> that is right. david, i want to ask this question, because
